Gamers Still Love Cuphead; Great Success of Beautiful Game

The expansion for the acclaimed platformer Cuphead has garnered quite a following among gamers. Today the developers showed off the sales results. They are impressive.

It will soon be six months since the release of The Delicious Last Course expansion for Cuphead, a lovely 2017 platformer that stood out for its beautiful, hand-drawn graphics styled on cartoons from the early 20th century.

The expansion, which was created in pains (the development process took as long as five years), received excellent reviews, and less than a few weeks after its release, it was purchased by more than a million players. Last night, devs at MDHR decided to show off updated sales results.

Double platinum

In a post on Twitter the developers thanked fans for their interest in the expansion and announced that Cuphead: The Last Delicious Course has sold 2 million copies across all platforms.

This means that since the last time MDHR announced the results, the DLC for Cuphead has doubled its sales - not surprising, after all, on Metacritic it reached a high average rating of 89/100 (PC version).

Finally, a reminder - The Delicious Last Course appeared on the same platforms as the base game, namely PC, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. The latter, at the time of its release on PS4, in 2020, had 6 million buyers.
